Justine, 12, firmly believes that she will be happier once her parents are divorced. The catch? They have no plans to do so. Tired of the arguing at home, Justine decides to use the language of her parents – both lawyers – to finally make herself heard. Surrounded by her group of friends, she creates the “Youth Court” to get what she wants. Obviously, this will not go as planned. How To Get Your Parents To Divorce follows the extraordinary adventure of a group of tweens as they learn to speak their truth.

Why we like it: Is this a comedy that literally puts parents on trial? A definite “yes” from the kids. This reverse take on the Parent Trap offers a clever, humorous look at children’s perception of justice and inexplicable adult relationships, resulting in many comical mishaps.
